We all face challenges all the time. To not be so overwhelmed by stress, mental health expert Heidi Hanna, PhD, helped Everyday Health come up with this test to help you identify the patterns you tend to follow when life’s challenges show up — and help you learn the stress management tools that best suit you.

Hanna is author of Stressaholic: 5 Steps to Transform Your Relationship with Stress and she’s developed several online tools to help individuals strengthen their cognitive abilities and stress management skills.

Take the test to learn more about your stress personality and the stress busters that will help you keep your emotions in check! Remember, there are no right or wrong answers.
